Beiyang reactionaries

"Secretary Yang (Yang Yongtai)."

"Prime Minister."

"You announced on behalf of our cabinet that our cabinet believes that since the cabinet is involved in this incident, the cabinet is the defendant. If the Supreme Court continues to be under the leadership of the cabinet, it will inevitably affect the ruling. And the cabinet has long had ideas and supports it. The power of the court to adjudicate cases independently. Just taking this opportunity, the cabinet decided to make the court independent, and the court will become a unit parallel to the cabinet in the future, and will no longer be under the command of the cabinet.”

The people sued the officials.

Several Anhui businessmen sued the cabinet.

Rare thing.

The newspapers that originally reported the "Sino-Japanese Treaty of Nanjing" and the Bank of China's newly established China Savings Bank, as well as the actions of China Bank of Communications, China Commercial Bank, and China Savings Bank to annex local banks, all changed the topic. Start talking about it.

Because this matter is too topical.

But what happened next was even more sensational.

It is rare for people to sue officials, and it is even rarer to sue the cabinet, the highest administrative body, and it is even rarer for Supreme Court President Wang Chonghui to announce his acceptance of the lawsuit.

On September 1923, 9, Wang Chonghui publicly announced his acceptance of the case.

Not only accepting the case, Wang Chonghui also asked those Anhui businessmen to go north in person, and bring their lawyers with them.At the same time, the cabinet is required to be ready to respond to the lawsuit, and the cabinet is also required to prepare lawyers to respond to the lawsuit.

Then report to the Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court is preparing to hear the case publicly this time.Not only is it a public trial, but the Supreme Court also stated that for the sake of the fairness of this case, many representatives from various fields will be invited to participate in the trial as jurors.

stunned.

Originally, many people thought that such absurd case would be dismissed by the Supreme Court like the Anhui Court.Unexpectedly, the Supreme Court actually accepted the case, and it will be tried in public.

too unexpected.

Very sensational.

But the unexpected happened one after another.

On September 1923, 9, Chen Bulei, the Chief of Staff of the Cabinet and concurrently the spokesperson of the Cabinet, announced that the Cabinet respected the decision of the Supreme Court.In this lawsuit, the cabinet will respect the laws of the Republic of China and actively respond to the lawsuit.

Instead of reprimanding the Supreme Court, the Cabinet declared respect for the decision of the Supreme Court.

It's something that many newspapers haven't thought about.

At this point, everyone understands that a big drama is about to begin.

But many newspapers are skeptical.

joke.

Several businessmen want to sue the cabinet, but it is still the current cabinet whose prestige has been greatly increased because of the signing of the "Sino-Japanese Treaty of Nanjing".So much so that the news has only just come out, but there are already many radical newspapers and student groups criticizing these people as traitors.Said it was a counterattack by the traitors, and asked the cabinet to investigate these traitors and punish these traitors.

There was an uproar.

And the same is true of many media outlets.Major newspapers including "Ta Kung Pao" and "Shen Bao" all believe that this lawsuit is basically unnecessary.

Can you win?

That's the cabinet.Everything in the Supreme Court is subject to the orders of the Cabinet.

Just when many newspapers were discussing this matter, the cabinet announced a big news again, a news that was enough to silence all newspapers.

On September 1923, 9, Deputy Prime Minister Yang Yongtai personally held a press conference.

Another Cabinet decision was announced.

Yang Yongtai announced that after this lawsuit, the cabinet believes that the court continues to have many problems under the cabinet.Including the current local courts are subordinate to the local government, which is not conducive to the impartiality of the courts.

In order to guard against the cabinet, there are also local governments that interfere with the normal work of the courts, giving the courts the power to hear cases independently without interference.The cabinet decided to change the court from an institution under the cabinet into a unit parallel to the cabinet.

All courts across the country will be under the command of the Supreme Court in the future and will be directly subordinate to the Supreme Court.The local government cannot interfere in the appointment of personnel, and it is all handed over to the Supreme Court.

Yang Yongtai finally announced that the cabinet will unswervingly adhere to the independence of the judiciary.The cabinet's decision will be submitted to the Provisional Senate for review.

As long as it is passed, the court will officially separate from the cabinet and become an independent unit parallel to the cabinet.

Big news.

One bomb after another was dropped on public opinion.The newspapers over the past few years have been overwhelmed, reporting these news every day.

"Mr. Zheng, please sit down."

"Prime Minister, you are welcome."

While there is a lot of noise outside about this matter, the cabinet is also preparing to respond to the lawsuit.Duan Xun met with a woman in the cabinet together with the cabinet secretary Liang Hongzhi.

A legendary woman of the Republic of China.

Zheng Yuxiu, known as the number one female killer in the Republic of China, and also the number one female doctor of law in the Republic of China.

Zheng Yuxiu participated in many assassinations.

The first assassination Zheng Yuxiu participated in was the assassination of the Prince Regent by Wang Jingwei, who caused a sensation throughout the country in the late Qing Dynasty.The bomb at that time was prepared by Zheng Yuxiu and the others.

The second assassination was also a national sensation.

That is when the revolutionaries dropped bombs on the street and assassinated Yuan Shikai.At that time, these revolutionaries were not trained enough. It should be said that they were all scholars.

Not a specialized military talent.

They were a little nervous during the assassination, so the bombs they threw were not accurate enough to kill Yuan Shikai.But it also shocked Yuan Shikai at that time.Because at that time, if the Revolutionary Party had been a little calmer and more accurate, it was very likely that Yuan Shikai would have been killed.But this assassination made Yuan Shikai never dare to come out casually.

Later, the assassination that made her most sad was the assassination of the leader of the Zongshe Party, who was known as the general of the late Qing Dynasty with Tie Liang in the late Qing Dynasty.At that time, the person who personally participated in the assassination was Peng Jiazhen, head of the assassination department of the Beijing-Tianjin Alliance.

Peng Jiazhen is Zheng Yuxiu's sister's fiancé and Zheng Yuxiu's future brother-in-law.At that time, the two were not yet married, so Peng Jiazhen decided to assassinate Liangbi.

Peng Jiazhen was ready to sacrifice, said goodbye to her fiancée and her brothers and sisters, and then participated in the assassination.

Liang Bi died, the assassination was successful.

But at the same time, Peng Jiazhen also died, which dealt a great blow to the Zheng family, and it was Zheng Yuxiu's most painful assassination.

This is the end of the Qing Dynasty.

After the founding of the Republic of China, Zheng Yuxiu, the second revolutionist, wanted to carry out her specialty again, which was to assassinate Yuan Shikai.But just as she made a move, Yuan Shikai knew it.

Therefore, Yuan Shikai also prepared to destroy Zheng Yuxiu.
